Arlayn Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 (edited) This guy. Perhaps next time DE could emphasize that update will roll in DE timezone. For DE, right now is still Thursday. So techically, they are still on-schedule. For now. Yep till 3 hours, and 10 minutes from now. edit: Well as of the main post time being 7:49. Every time a dev stream is announced its always 1 hour earlier for me. 2pm for them is 1pm for me. So yeah...

NikolaiLev Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Look im sure they would love to get the damn update out as soon as possible but they arnt a huge development team they are just a medium sized company and im sure they are just polishing up the features and getting them ready for shipment. they said it themselves they want the update out just as bad as everyone else so just be patient please. They have 170 employees. Not that I care whether they're "late" or not. But try not to spread misinformation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.T.M.P.D Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Getting close to 9PM dev time. The pressure's on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azazelbishop Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 If DE doesnt make sure the update works properly then the moment you turn the game on you will lose all your sanity points and the old ones will consume you! you sir are my hero for the reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlayn Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 They have 170 employees. Not that I care whether they're "late" or not. But try not to spread misinformation. your right that is misinformation. 170 would make them a small company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unknow99 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 It will come when it's done + timezones + developer's crunch time (you probably don't know about this). When you're a game dev, staying in the office for hours or days is common... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chibers Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Because a while ago they used to release things on Fridays when they thought things were ready, but then no one would be available to fix any lingering bugs during the weekend. To alleviate that, they moved updates to Wednesday. Then there was a weekly streak of updates, Tenno Reinforcements, events, etc. which has lead to a somewhat unhealthy belief/expectation that DE would release something every single Wednesday. Because the forums always goes nuts when there isn't something, this seems to cause DE to over commit and it takes them to the last minute to get it out the door.

Keltik0ne Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Devs are like puppies, they need love, care, food and lots of sleep. Oh, and someone to clean up the random poop (hi DERebecca). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N7_Phantom Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 your right that is misinformation. 170 would make them a small company. Proves my point even better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[DE]Momaw Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 Worm Holed from GD. And title reloaded. This... is not feedback. It's a question. They're kind of opposites. Troll Novas everywhere. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlayn Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Proves my point even better could end up like the last few times when they released the update the very next day. Not saying it will happen, but it has happened. There was even the time they released an update the very next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpayne Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 They have 170 employees. Not that I care whether they're "late" or not. But try not to spread misinformation. Correct me if I'm wrong, but even if they have 170 employees, and even if you consider that a "large" company or whatever you are implying, I'm fairly certain that not all 170 employees are working on Warframe. It's only a small dev group. Yes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domesticon Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 I think that they actually "plan" to release them during to the day but due to, what is unfortunately most likely, poor planning their updates get pushed back several hours/days. This has happened for what, the last 3 updates? Really think DE should start getting themselves to the step right before updating before the actual update day comes.

jjpdn Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 (edited) Maybe this frog ran by one of the developpers while they typing in the finally pieces of code. She/he was so surprised that she/he pressed the delete button, removing completely the final pieces of the code. So then, she/he fainted and fell over and got a huge concusion and bled all over the floor. Others telephoned 911. Sadly, that had the unintentional side effect of calling in aliens, who came onto earth thinking there was a space cheese party. Finding out that there was no such thing happening, they escaped stealthy extrem- What are we talking about again? Maybe instead of telling us their estimation of when the update is going to come out, they should tell a us a later date and surprise us with an early update!

jjpdn Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 I'm not sure about you guys, but I would like DE to take a nice sleep and then do it tomorrow. I would not like them making more bugs because of the fact that they didn't sleep before the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taranis49 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 (edited) I'm inclined to agree, since this is hardly the first time it's happened. I appreciate that they're working into the wee hours of the morning (I've done it myself), but it also means that work quality potentially takes a hit because you're more likely to make mistakes and miss stuff when you're tired. I'd almost rather they wait until Monday or Tuesday for release at this rate. With it now technically being Friday, any bugs that do pop up after release (and they will) may not be fixed until the weekend's over... which was a good reason for switching the update day from Friday to Wednesday in the first place.

Corvid Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 This is actually a good reason. Nanite energy drink or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)japaneselonewolf Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Since OP feels releasing the update as soon as they can does not work for him, here's an idea. How about DE finishes the update, then holds onto it while they prepare it for the PS4 side of things? Then, when you ask about it, they can tell you they have it, definitely ready, but you have to wait another month or so. Then both sides, along with XBox would receive it at the same time, making the PC people wait the longest. Would that be better, instead of DE working hard and late at night to appease you as soon as they can? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
